Nawzuddin Siddiqui Slams Reports About Him Supporting A Ban On 'The Kerala Story'; Calls It 'Fake News'

Looks like Nawazuddin Siddiqui's views on the controversy around 'The Kerala Story' were taken out of context.

New Delhi: Nawazuddin Siddiqui clarified his stance around the ban on 'The Kerala Story. As per some media reports, the actor is alleged to have wanted to get the Adah Sharma film banned. However, Nawazuddin slammed such reports and called such 'fake news' on his official social media handle. Looks like Nawazuddin Siddiqui's views on the controversy around 'The Kerala Story' were taken out of context.

Taking to his official Twitter handle, the 'Gangs of Wasseypur' actor wrote, "Please stop spreading false news just to get some views and hits, it’s called cheap TRP - I never said and I would never want any film to be banned ever. STOP BANNING FILMS. STOP SPREADING FAKE NEWS !!!."

 

Earlier, Nawazuddin Siddiqui had shared his views on the 'The Kerala Story' ban and said that if a movie 'is hurting someone, then it is wrong." According to him, we don't make films to hurt the audience or their sentiments.

Nawzuddin, whose latest film 'Jogire Sara Ra Ra' released in theatres on Friday, said that films should foster a sense of harmony among people. Nawazuddin's words did not go down well with a certain section of social media.

Meanwhile, despite all controversies, 'The Kerala Story' has collected over Rs. 200 crores at the box office and has become the first female-led film to do so.

On the other hand, Nawazuddin’s latest release ‘Jogira Sara Ra Ra’ is an romantic comedy in which the veteran stars alongside Neha Sharma. As per our in-house review, “'Jogira Sara Ra Ra' starring Nawazudding Siddiqui and Neha Sharma is an outdated romantic comedy mixed with a tinge of women-companionship, but brewed in the same old formulaic structure of such films. Directed by Kushan Nandy and written for screen by Ghalib Asad Bhopali, 'Jogira Sara Ra Ra' is the poorest of poor adaptation of the overexploited storyline about a young woman wanting to break free from small-town mentality until she meets someone who matches her madness and angst.”
